This afternoon, in a special public address, Melania Trump will speak from the heart about her husband, Donald J. Trump, and the leadership qualities he has to make their beloved country more prosperous and secure.

In her speech Melania will touch on family, her marriage, the campaign experience and the goals she has as First Lady. The following are draft excerpts of her prepared remarks:

Surrounded by our family, and speaking to an audience of millions, Donald promised to campaign on behalf of those who feel the system is broken and does not work for them, those who just want a fair shake, an opportunity for a better education, a better-paying job, a better future. He pledged to restore integrity to Washington, and respect for America abroad.

I come here today to talk about my husband Donald and his deep love and respect for this country, and all of its people.

I have come here to talk about this man I have known for 18 years. And I have come here today to talk about our partnership, our family, and what I know for sure in my heart, about this man, who will Make America Great Again.…People have asked me, if Donald is the President, what kind of First Lady will you be?…I want our children in this country, and all around the world, to live a beautiful life, to be safe and secure.To dream freely of love and a family of their own someday.
